Since I learned of the Taqueria Chingon owners' pedigree from Le Bouchon and NoMi and decided to experience the gourmet hipster tacos for myself, I have very much enjoyed many times one of their signature tacos, the duck carnitas, with savory duck meat, crunchy duck skin, duo of rich sweet and spicy sauces, and a few supremes of juicy orange and pile of fresh herbs, all atop a freshly made tortilla. Speaking of the fresh tortillas, the blue corn quesadilla is delicious especially when they get the exterior a bit crispy to contrast with the hot melty inside. What I have found a little disturbing is that when I have take out, the tortillas have always been soft and warm and tender. But the last 2 times when I dined on their patio, the tortillas were cold, stiff and a little tough. Very disappointing, not to mention on one of those visits I brought a first timer after I boasted to them that my favorite tacos in the City were from Taqueria Chingon, and then when the homemade tortillas seems far from being fresh I was really embarrassed and a little ashamed. The thick green salsa goes great with any flavor of taco. The vegetable tacos like artichoke and roasted squash always have a delectable texture combination, that as long as the tortilla is actually fresh and tender, makes a memorable taste sensation. Tres leches cake is yummy and well soaked with sauce and cajeta.

Duck and asada tacos were good. Duck carnitas had good flavor. The salsa was good. Shrimp taco was too salty. Al pastor was ok. Churros did not hold at all. Crumbled too easily. They only have seats outside.

Great place for a quick bite to eat! My tacos were ready in 5 minutes and were each hot. I loved that the asada was perfectly well cooked and each were a really good portion size for the price. You also get two sauces serviced with your meal. I especially loved what I think was an avocado cream sauce. The outside is a perfectly cute spot to sit at on a nice spring or summer day. I am looking forward to going back to try other dishes.
